SANTA BARBARA,
Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CallWave,
Inc. (Nasdaq:CALL
-
News) announced today that they
have been named one of the top 50
fastest growing technology companies
in the state of California by
Deloitte & Touche. This designation
caps off a year full of new product
launches from CallWave including the
very popular Vtxt voice-to-text
voicemail application that has
already hit over one million
transcriptions since its launch in
June of this year.
CallWave brings 9
years of experience to delivering
desktop applications that simplify
phone tasks and drive convergence -
making PC applications that are a
companion to the phone. Since their
inception, the Company has handled
over 17 million downloads, added
value to more than 5 billion, and
have nearly 2 million active users.
In the past ten
months, CallWave has launched a new
suite of products as part of its
phone companion portfolio: called
Voicemail 2.0. Beginning in January
of this year, CallWave launched its
Visual Voicemail product giving
mobile users a method for saving
voicemails by receiving a .wav file
of their voicemail in their email
inbox. That led to the launch of a
truly innovative voice-to-text
application called Vtxt. CallWave
created the proprietary technology
in-house and launched a beta version
of the service which captures the
"gist" of a voicemail so mobile
professionals can quickly see their
voicemail in one text message. The
CallWave Personal Phonepage rounded
out Voicemail 2.0, allowing users to
archive mobile phone voicemails,
contacts, text messages and more
from their very own personal
phonepage via the web.
CallWave has
expanded their distribution strategy
by taking their innovative products
into the widget world. They
successfully launched a visual
voicemail widget, a text messaging
widget and a Vtxt widget. The widget
strategy has been so successful,
that more than 1 million text
messaging widgets have been
registered.
CallWave continues
its focus on integrating calls,
contacts and connections via ways
never thought possible with a focus
on the unified communications space
and mobile business applications.
They will begin to bundle their
products and services to deliver
comprehensive communications
solutions to prosumers and small
businesses looking to converge their
communications.
